● Yorkshire (1965)

Women, such as these in Leeds, attempt to add character and colour to the dreary exteriors of their houses by sandstoning the doorsteps and wax-polishing the window sills. '"She keeps a lovely front" is the accolade for a houseproud woman’ – the Sunday Times magazine, March 1965.
Photographs by
John Bulmer. The '
North UK' set in particular are really interesting, not only for the photography but as a piece of social history.

Habbits are humanoid forms with body parts distorted relative to the environmental impact of common activities. Each body part is assigned to one impact: Feet - Transport; Hands - Home Energy; Mouth - Water; Bum - Waste; Belly - Food and Head - Electrical Goods and the body parts are grown where an individual's impact is higher.

Beautiful in the living room, glorious in the street. A nice collection of discarded Christmas trees. The selection look like pictures of casualties after a night out on the pop.
